ITEM NO.1

This is to inform the members of the Company that the company proposes to issue equity shares and convertible share warrants on preferential issue basis as explained in the below item no.2 and 3. Inorder to provide flexibility for the same and to meet the future business requirements, it may be required to raise further capital in the Company and hence it is necessary to increase the Authorised Share Capital of the Company and consequently to also amend Clause V of Memorandum of Association of the Company.

The present Authorised Share Capital of the Company is Rs.80,00,00,000 (Rupees eighty crores) divided into 6,50,00,000 (six crore fifty lakhs) equity shares of the face value of Rs.10/(Rupees ten) each and 15,00,000 (fifteen lakhs) cumulative redeemable preference shares of the face value of Rs.100/- (Rupees one hundred) each. After the proposed increase, the Authorised Share Capital would be Rs.100,00,00,000 (Rupees one hundred crores) divided into 8,50,00,000 (eight crore fifty lakhs) equity shares of the face value of Rs.10/- (Rupees ten) each and 15,00,000 (fifteen lakhs) cumulative redeemable preference shares of the face value of Rs.100/- (Rupees one hundred) each ranking pari passu in all the respect with the existing equity shares and preference shares, respectively, of the Company.

The provisions of Sections 4, 13, 61 and 64 of the Companies Act, 2013 require the Company to seek the approval of the Members for increase in the Authorised Share Capital and consequently the amendment to the Clause V of the Memorandum of Association of the Company and accordingly the Board recommends the passing of the above resolution by the Members of the Company.

None of the Directors, Key Managerial Personnel and their relatives are concerned or interested, financially or otherwise in the resolution as set out in item no.1.

ITEM NO.2

The members of the Company were aware of the fact that after completing the financial restructuring, the infra division of the Company was started in June 2022. This is a new segment added to the Company. With the relevant expertise in the infrastructure business, the new management intends to leverage the expertise of the company in handling products/projects in the electrical and infrastructure industry. The present pending order book of the Company is Rs.303 Cr and is now working on to get new orders and building up the order book with the utilities, Government and the private sector. Till such time the Company is able to secure direct orders, the Company is executing sub-contracting/back to back orders
